Identifying Cultural Hazards: Four Clues That You May Be Out Of Balance

Traditional health and safety risk assessments are focused on hazard identification. But what if the hazards are not physical or chemical? What if they are cultural? How can you identify cultural hazards that have a profound affect on safety, productivity, and quality? In this session, you will examine systems that degrade trust and credibility, learn the most effective methods to identify latent elements that signal a culture at risk without spending thousands of dollars and hours on a cultural assessment, and take away tools to help minimize these cultural pressures.

Participants will leave with a greater ability to identify the pit-falls in their own organization’s safety program, and the logic-based tools necessary to build an organization of balance and long-term success.

The presentation objectives are:
Ø   Motivate participants to think differently about workplace safety.
Ø   Give participants actual tools to identify and correct cultural hazards.
Ø   Have fun and provide value to participants.
